Would it be a good idea to use the email system to pay base rent ? I was wondering this while running mishes in Nerva last night . Currently we pay base rent in Port Oakes of course , but it would be nice to not have to go all the way back there to do this , don'tcha think ? Just wondering , it's not a huge deal just kinda tedious .

No clue if they could pull it off, but it's a damn fine QoL suggestion.


Be well, people of CoH.

I can automatically set it up to direct deposit my rent/mortgage payment to the landlord/bank, I would suggest the ability to automatically pay base rent so I never have to see the pointless notice warning pop up.

Thanks for the replys so far , seems like most would agree with this suggestion . Maybe we will get it after Going Rogue or sometime down the line, who knows

I'd be perfectly happy with this as a solution as well.

1. I'd modify the suggestion to say that, instead of using email, to have it as a payment option from the Supergroup management screen. The new email system doesn't really incorporate the ability to credit Prestige, which is a supergroup metric, not player-based.

A small but niggling issue here would be that, "in theme", you should be going to the SG Registrar to issue payment. Based on that, and wanting to keep the themed feel of the intent in line with QoL needs, I'll add:

2. Remote payment incurs a small prestige processing fee, say 50 prestige or whatever we'd argue is "fair", for every remote payment. You can bypass this payment by issuing it directly at the Registrar.

How does that sound?

Hard to argue with that logic , and 50 prestige isn't much . That could work also . Any other suggestions are welcomed . I think we may be on to something here .

Huh... I wouldn't have thought of that. Good idea. I like it!

You're crazy but!

Sorry, couldn't resist. Sounds like an OK idea to me, but it might be a hassle for the devs if the two systems don't already communicate somehow.


Dec out.
